Over the past 10 years, Great Dane Furniture has been a forerunner in bringing leading Scandinavian designs to Australian shores. Now they are set to go one step further, launching the world’s first Muuto concept store.

Purveyors of new furniture and interior accessories from Denmark, Muuto and Great Dane have much in common. With a name inspired by the Finnish term ‘muutos’, meaning change or new perspectives, Muuto seeks to bring together cutting-edge pieces that have been developed by the crème de la crème of Scandinavian designers.

Featuring daring explorations in colour and shape, Muuto showcases designers that convey a fresh perception of the world via everyday objects.

Great Dane is set to welcome Jason Grant as the Muuto brand ambassador, a man who has established himself as one of Australia’s foremost freelance stylists, specialising in interiors, lifestyles and props. His work has been featured in House & Garden, Inside Out and Gourmet Traveller magazines.

Presented within Great Dane’s three Australian showrooms, Muuto will showcase a collection of furniture, lighting and accessories that represent the best of Scandinavian design today. Their most acclaimed pieces will be exhibited, including the aptly named Unfold Pendants, Rest Sofa, and Stacked Storage.
